Review: My Dog Loves This!!! - I can’t say enough good things about Nature’s Balance dog food! It has been such a fantastic choice for my dog, and I’ve noticed a huge difference in her overall health and happiness since switching to it. As a pet parent, finding the right food can be a challenge, but this brand checks every box for me. The first thing I love is the high-quality ingredients. Nature’s Balance uses wholesome, natural ingredients with no fillers, artificial additives, or mystery items on the label. It’s reassuring to know I’m feeding my dog real food that supports her health. The balanced formula is packed with nutrients, and it’s clear that this brand prioritizes my pet’s well-being. Since starting this food, I’ve noticed that her coat is shinier and softer, and her energy levels are incredible. She’s always been an active pup, but now she seems even more vibrant and playful. Her digestion has also improved—no more upset stomachs or irregular bowel movements. It’s such a relief to see her thriving on food that agrees with her. I also appreciate the variety of flavors Nature’s Balance offers. My dog can be a little picky, but she absolutely loves every flavor we’ve tried so far. Mealtime has become her favorite part of the day! The food smells fresh (not overly processed), and the kibble size is perfect for her. Another big plus is how well it caters to dogs with special dietary needs. Whether your pup has sensitivities or you’re looking for a grain-free or limited-ingredient option, Nature’s Balance has a formula that fits. It’s so nice to have peace of mind knowing I’m giving my dog food that works for her, no matter what stage of life she’s in. Finally, I love the value. While it might not be the cheapest dog food on the market, it’s worth every penny for the quality and benefits it provides. Knowing that I’m investing in my dog’s long-term health makes it an easy choice. If you’re looking for a dog food that’s healthy, delicious, and backed by real results, I can’t recommend Nature’s Balance enough. My dog is healthier, happier, and more energetic than ever, and I couldn’t be more grateful for this amazing brand!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does anyone know if the bag indicates aafco standards? (association of american feed control officials)**
A: the package only list one ingredient as not recognized by affco which is taurine which is minimum 1%.  I didn't notice anything else.
You can check their website for more information

**Q: Can someone please tell me what the protein percentage is in this food?**
A: The package says minimum 22% crude protein

**Q: Protein level?**
A: I don't know the exact amount or percentage but this food worked really well for my aging dog who needed a limited ingredient diet (LID).  This brand also has a high protein option as well that you may be more interested in.  My pup Lola ate this food and enjoyed it.  Eventually as time went on she had to move to prescription food in the end.  The main reason I chose this food was because it was a LID recipe and as she aged and had increasing health issues this helped her with digestion.

**Q: Can someone please tell me the crude fat percentage? Thank you.**
A: Thank you for reaching out. Please know that the Guaranteed Analysis for all of our formulas are listed on our website but the Crude Fat for the Limited Ingredient Diet Lamb & Brown Rice Small Breed Bites is 22.0% Crude Fat. For more detailed information, our Customer Care Team is more than happy to help and can be reached at 800-829-4493. Thank you!
